In this paper we establish explicit expressions for single and product moments of order statistics from exponentiated log-logistic distribution. These expressions are used to calculate the mean and variances. 1. Introduction Let X 1, X 2,..., X n be a random sample of size n from a continuous population having probability density function (pdf) f(x) and distribution function (df) F (x). Let X 1:n X 2:n... X n:n be the corresponding order statistics. The pdf of X r:n, the rth order statistic is given by David and Nagaraa (23) f r:n (x) = (r 1)!(n r)! [F (x)]r 1 [1 F (x)] n r f(x), < x <, (1) and oint pdf of X r:n, X s:n, 1 r < s n is given as f r,s:n (x, y) = (r 1)!(s r 1)!(n s)! [F (x)]r 1 [F (y) F (x)] s r 1 [1 F (y)] n s f(x)f(y), (2) < x < y <. A random variable X is said to have exponentiated log-logistic distribution (Rosaiah et al., 26) if its pdf is given by x f(x) = θx (+1)[ ] θ+1, θ, >, < x <, (3) 1 + x and the corresponding df of X is [ x ] θ, F (x) = θ, >, < x <.

Athar and Nayabuddin / ProbStat Forum, Volume 7, July 214, Pages 39 44 4 Moments of order statistics for some specific distributions are investigated by several authors in the literature. Malik (1966) derived the expression for exact moments of order statistics from Pareto distribution. Malik (1967) obtained the explicit expression for moments of order statistics of power function distribution. Khan and Khan (1987) obtained the moments of order statistics from Burr distribution. Khan and Ali (1995) derived the ratio and inverse moments of order statistic from Burr distribution. Further, Ali and Khan (1996) established the ratio and inverse moments of order statistic from Weibull and exponential distribution. In this paper we have obtained simple expressions for the exact moments of order statistic from exponentiated log-logistic distribution. Also means and variances are tabulated. 2. Single moments Lemma 2.1. For exponentiated log-logistic distribution as given in (3) and any non negative finite integers a and b, we have that ( I (a, ) = θb ) + θ(a + 1), 1, I (a, b) = Proof. From (5), we have I (a, ) = x [F (x)] a [1 F (x)] b f(x)dx. (5) x [F (x)] a f(x)dx = θ x 1[ ( ) θ x Set 1+x = t θ in (6), after simplification we get required result. x 1 + x ] θ(a+1)+1 dx. (6) Lemma 2.2. For exponentiated log-logistic distribution as given in (3) and any non negative finite integers a and b, we have that I (a, b) = b ( ) b ( 1) k I (a + k, ) = θ k k= b ( ) b ( ( 1) k B k ) + θ(a + k + 1), 1. Proof. It can be proved by expanding [1 F (x)] b binomially in (5) and using Lemma 2.1. k= Theorem 2.3. For exponentiated log-logistic distribution as given in (3) and 1 r n,, θ >, we have that n r ( n r n r ( ) n r ( E(Xr:n) = C r:n ( 1) )I k (r +k 1, ) = θc r:n ( 1) k B k k ) +θ(r +k), 1, (7) C r:n = k= (r 1)!(n r)!. Proof. From (1), we have E(X r:n) = (r 1)!(n r)! On application of Lemma 2.2 in (8), we get required result. k= x [F (x)] r 1 [1 F (x)] n r f(x)dx. (8)

At = in (7), we have n r ( ) n r 1 1 = C r:n ( 1) k k r + k k= and hence the result given in (9). 3. Product moments Lemma 3.1. For exponentiated log-logistic distribution as given in (3) and any non negative finite integers a and c, we have that θ 2 ( i + ) I i, (a,, c) = I i, (a, b, c) = + θ(c + 1)B 3 F 2 x + θ(c + 1), + θ(c + 1) + 1, and a 1, a 2,..., a p [ p pf q, 1 = b 1, b 2,..., b q r= =1 + θ(a + c + 2), 1 i, + θ(a + c + 2) + 1 i+ + θ(a + c + 2) ; 1 x i y [F (x)] a [F (y) F (x)] b [F (y)] c f(x)f(y)dydx (1) Γ(a + r) ][ q Γ(b ) ]. a b =1 + r For p = q + 1 and q =1 b p =1 a >, see Mathai and Saxena (1973). Proof. We have from (1) I i, (a,, c) = x In view of (3), (4) and (11), we have By setting I i, (a,, c) = (θ) 2 ( y x i y [F (x)] a [F (y)] c f(x)f(y)dydx. (11) x i 1[ x ] θ(a+1)+1[ x 1 + x y 1[ y ] θ(c+1)+1 ] dy 1 + y 1+y ) θ = t θ in (12), we get after simplification I i, (a,, c) = θ 2 B x (p, q) = x x i 1[ t p 1 (1 t) q 1 dt, dx. (12) x ] θ(a+1)+1 ( B 1 + x x 1+x + θ(c + 1), 1 ) dx (13)

Also note that Mathai and Saxena (1973) proved that and B x (p, q) = xp p 2 F 1 (p, 1 q, p + 1; x) 1 t a 1 (1 t) b 1 2 F 1 (c, d ; e; t)dt = B(a, b) 3 F 2 (c, d, a ; e, a + b ; 1). Substituting these value in (13), we get the required result. Lemma 3.2. For exponentiated log-logistic distribution as given in (3) and any non negative finite integers a, b and c, we have that I i, (a, b, c) = = b ( ) b ( 1) k I i, (a + k,, b + c k) k k= θ 2 ( i + + θ(c + 1)B + θ(a + c + 2), 1 i ) + θ(c + 1),, 3 F 2 + θ(c + 1) + 1, + θ(a + c + 2) + 1 i+ + θ(a + c + 2) ; 1. Proof. Lemma can be proved by expanding [F (y) F (x)] b binomially in (1) and using Lemma 2.1. Theorem 3.3. For exponentiated log-logistic distribution as given in (2) and, θ > and 1 r < s n 1, we have that E(X i, n s s r 1 ( )( s r 1 n s r,s:n) = C r,s:n ( 1) k+l k l l= k= n s s r 1 ( )( ) s r 1 n s = C r,s:n ( 1) k+l k l l= k= ( i + B + θ(s + l + k), 1 i ) + θ(s + l r),, Proof. From (2), we have 3 F 2 E(X i, r,s:n) = C r,s:n x + θ(s + l r) + 1, On application of Lemma 3.2, (14) can be proved. o ) I i, (r + k 1,, s + l r 1) θ 2 + θ(s + l r) + θ(s + l + k) + 1 i+ + θ(s + l + k), 1 [F (x)] r 1 [F (y) F (x)] s r 1 [1 F (y)] n s f(x)f(y)dydx..
